This administration is a lesson in abject silliness. Everyone knows that Joe Biden has no clue who or what is being done in the energy policy of his administration; heck, he could not even name his Interior Secretary. That said, whoever controls his Twitter account is now just making him look even more stupid as Biden blames the gas stations.
I would draw attention to the most overlooked quote from Joe Biden as it pertains to gas prices. This statement was made May 23, 2022, and it proves he knows the gas price is directly related to his choice to implement the Green New Deal by executive policy:
…”Here’s the situation. And when it comes to the gas prices, we’re going through an incredible transition that is taking place that, God willing, when it’s over, we’ll be stronger and the world will be stronger and less reliant on fossil fuels when this is over.”… [source]
What blithering idiots-unless someone has owned a business (including gas stations) do they realize the profit margins are so slim there isn’t room to “lower” prices unless you want them & their families to suffer, starve, go without or close their business.
These greedy jerks think the business owner who works his a&& off and gets paid last behind everyone & everything else (if there is a profit) should take a wage decrease. A&&holes.
My father owned gas stations and the only way he was profitable was by the sheer number of gallons he sold – fortunately he had one of the busiest stations in the state bcz he was on a major freeway. There is a breakeven point where your expenses are paid – then you can pay yourself.
We pinched pennies and there were many years of frugal living until the business could pay for itself and support a family.
My father bought a car wash and took out the gas bcz there was no $$ in it.
Clueless this incompetent administration is-that’s why a business=man is needed to run this country. Experience matters!
We began a very small family business that finally kinda took off, in that we were selling products, in summer 2020. We continued until around 3 months ago.
Shipping has doubled then tripled and taken our profits to nil. We continue now out of purified orneriness. People think we’re successful but we’re just too stubborn with a tiny glimmer of hope to give up.
I get it. I’m rather ornery myself.
People going bust is what this regime is all about.
Brandon, parroting his handlers, is robbing the gas station with the weapon of his fraudulent placement as Commander?-in-Chief.
Leftists’ understanding of reality is beyond parody. This clown and his morons out there actually think gas stations arbitrarily control prices with no outside influence and control, so Abdul or Apu out there are just being mean and charging us all more in order for them to go on more vacations with Bezos and Musk.
